Pre-match views from the Match Thread:
azz_88: “Buzzing for today and just down the road for me so glad I get to see the first game under Skubala. Intrigued to see what tweaks he makes.
Biggest concern is he can’t turn around our poor defending from corners in a few days and they will be very strong in that.”
Scotimp: “The most interesting aspect today is the reaction of the players – will they rouse themselves into a mild trot at some point or continue to play walking football? There should be more energy if nothing else.”
WellingtonImp: “He’s drawn a bit of a short straw with his first few fixtures – a real tough start – let’s hope he can get a tune out of the players, but let’s not get too carried away with results over the next few games, it’s more about attitude and application.”
